Original job description

Job Title: Substation DesignerJob DescriptionThe Substation Designer role sits within the substation department and focuses on developing detailed construction drawings and models for electrical substation projects. The designer independently produces 2-D drawings and 3-D models, supports complex projects with minimal supervision, and serves as a subject matter expert in substation design. This position also supervises and mentors less experienced designers while collaborating closely with engineers and other departments to deliver accurate, buildable designs.

Responsibilities

Develop substation design layouts using scoping information and general guidance from a design engineer.
Independently create 2-D drawings and 3-D models of electrical substation features and components, including transformers, circuit breakers, and related equipment using MicroStation.
Develop layouts of parts and assemblies in both 2-D and 3-D formats to support construction and installation activities.
Modify and update existing models, assemblies, and layouts to reflect design changes and project updates.
Apply and maintain part naming and numbering conventions, as well as file naming and management protocols, to ensure consistent documentation.
Create or modify physical drawings such as single-line diagrams, station location plans, electrical assemblies, cable and conduit plans, cable schedules, grounding plans, duct bank designs and layouts, and other detailed drawings required to construct an electrical substation with minimal guidance from the project lead engineer.
Use ProjectWise or similar project documentation systems to track all design modifications and new designs.
Handle complex design projects without supervision, ensuring quality, accuracy, and adherence to project requirements.
Coordinate with team members from other departments involved in substation design projects to ensure alignment and resolve design issues.
Supervise and mentor less experienced designers, providing guidance, feedback, and technical support.
Check and validate project drawings, including reviewing the work of peers and subordinates for accuracy and completeness.
Serve as a subject matter expert for substation design within the team and provide technical input as needed.
Function as project lead on small, less complicated projects with minimal guidance from an engineer.
Work under the supervision of engineers, incorporating their direction and feedback into design deliverables.

Essential Skills

At least six years of experience designing physical layouts, equipment layouts, plan views, elevation views, and section views, and creating detailed bills of material for electrical or similar projects.
At least six years of design experience using AutoCAD.
Strong knowledge of substation design, including physical substation layout and utility-related requirements.
Ability to create and interpret single-line diagrams, station location plans, and other substation engineering drawings.
Experience developing grounding and lightning protection designs for substations.
Proficiency in creating and modifying electrical assemblies, cable and conduit plans, cable schedules, and duct bank designs and layouts.
Ability to check and validate design packages and drawing sets for accuracy and constructability (experience preferred).
Familiarity with part naming and numbering conventions and file management protocols for engineering documentation.
Ability to handle complex projects independently while meeting quality and schedule expectations.
Strong coordination and communication skills to work effectively with engineers and cross-functional teams.
Capability to supervise and mentor junior designers in a technical setting.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Associate degree in applied science (AAS) in drafting and computer-aided (CAD) design, or in civil, electrical, or mechanical engineering technology, or equivalent combination of education and experience.
Experience with MicroStation for creating 2-D drawings and 3-D models of substation components.
Experience with ProjectWise or similar systems for project documentation and design tracking.
Background in substation engineering and utility substation design.
Proficiency with AutoCAD Electrical or similar design tools is beneficial.
Demonstrated ability to act as a subject matter expert in substation design.
Experience leading smaller projects or workstreams within a design team.
